With the nervous opening game out of the way it’s time for the second Super Lig game of the season. Yeni Malatyaspor look forward to welcoming Göztepe in front of their home support.
Both teams should be fairly well rested for this game, as they have had some quiet days to prepare. Hopefully this will translate into lots of action on the pitch.
8-5-16 (wins/draws/losses). These are the numbers for Göztepe when playing away games on grass, which is not the surface they have on their own home stadium (which has artifical turf). Their goal statistics from those 29 matches are 27-36 (scored/conceded).
It's time to recharge all electronic entertainment devices for Göztepe, who are travelling more than 1400 kilometers to play this game.
